What are your top 3 purchases of all time?
There's 3 things that really stand out for me that I would say made a massive difference to my life:
-
Cordless screw driver. Bought the day after building a flat pack bed with a crappy screw.driver that just shredded my hand. Thought it was frivolous at the time, but I've used it so much since. It's light, small enough to fit in my pocket and good for 90% of DIY tasks.
-
Tassimo coffee machine. Bought it 9 years ago, use it every day. Nice quick easy coffee. What's not to like.
-
My first DSLR camera. It was a Nikon D50 back in 2005/6 and it sparked my interest in photography to this day. It gave me a hobby I can take lots of places and do it alone or with others. I never loved the D50 camera itself, but I did get some really nice shots with it

What vacuum are you using?
Xiaomi Mi Vacuum Cleaner. I've had it for almost 5 years so there are likely better/cheaper options.
Me too! Over 6 years here. Damn fine vacuum.
How bad are the privacy concerns?
The app doesn't have much information about you. The vacuum does map the area as it goes so I guess worst case China might have a rough sketch of my house layout. It uses lasers to map so there's no camera to worry about. I figured the benefits outweighed the risks with this particular purchase.
I'm sure china is super interested in you lol
And interestingly, I haven't replaced a single brush or anything else despite notifications.
How often do you have it vacuum?
Once a day Monday<->Thursday on automatic schedule. Sometimes additional cleanups when needed or when I'm out and remeber to run it.
